INDEX TO EXHIBITS Exhibit Number Description -------------- ----------- 99.1 Transocean Inc. Monthly Fleet Update

EXHIBIT 99.1 (TRANSOCEAN LOGO) The information contained in this Monthly Fleet Update report (the "Information") is as of the date of the report only and is subject to change without notice to the recipient. Transocean Inc. assumes no duty to update any portion of the Information. DISCLAIMER. NEITHER TRANSOCEAN INC. NOR ITS AFFILIATES MAKE ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE) REGARDING THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT, WHICH INFORMATION IS PROVIDED "AS IS." Neither Transocean Inc. nor its affiliates will be liable to any recipient or anyone else for any inaccuracy, error or omission, regardless of cause, in the information set forth in this report or for any damages (whether direct or indirect, consequential, punitive or exemplary) resulting therefrom. NO UNAUTHORIZED PUBLICATION OR USE. All information provided by Transocean Inc. in this report is given for the exclusive use of the recipient and may not be published, redistributed or retransmitted without the prior written consent of Transocean Inc. CLIENT CONTRACT DURATION AND DAYRATES AND RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OPERATIONS. The duration of the client contracts is the estimated duration only, and client contracts are subject to cancellation or suspension for a variety of reasons, including some beyond the control of Transocean Inc. Also, the dayrates set forth in the report are estimates based upon the full contractual operating dayrate. However, the actual average dayrate earned over the course of any given contract will be lower and could be substantially lower. The actual average dayrate will depend upon a number of factors (rig downtime, suspension of operations, etc.) including some beyond the control of Transocean Inc. Our client contracts and operations are generally subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, and we urge you to review the description and explanation of such risks and uncertainties in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which are available free of charge on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. NEW FLEET CLASSIFICATION. Transocean Inc. has created a new rig classification to its listing of semisubmersible rigs and drillships to better reflect the company's strategic focus on the ownership and operation of premium, high specification floating rigs. The new rig classification, "High Specification Fleet," is comprised of "5th Generation Deepwater," which refers to the latest generation of semisubmersible rigs and drillships possessing the latest technical drilling capabilities and the ability to operate in water depths in excess of 7,000 feet, "Other Deepwater," which refers to semisubmersible rigs and drillships that possess the ability to drill in water depths equal to or greater than 4,500 feet and "Other High Specification," comprised of four of the company's premium harsh environment rigs, the semisubmersibles Henry Goodrich, Paul B. Loyd, Jr., Transocean Arctic and Polar Pioneer. The previous category entitled "Mid-water Fleet" has been renamed "Other Floaters," which represents semisubmersible rigs and drillships that possess the ability to drill in water depths of up to 4,499 feet. This report does not include contract status information for the fleet of TODCO, a publicly traded drilling company in which Transocean owns a majority interest. Page 1

(2) Expiration dates represent the company's current estimate of the earliest date the contract for each rig is likely to expire. Some rigs have two contracts in continuation, so the second line shows the estimated earliest availability. Many contracts permit the client to extend the contract. (3) Represents the full operating dayrate, although the average dayrate over the term of the contract will be lower and could be substantially lower. Does not reflect incentive programs which are typically based on the rig's operating performance against a performance curve. (4) The rig is leased from its owner, an unrelated third party, pursuant to a fully defeased lease arrangement. (5) Although originally constructed in 1982, this unit was substantially upgraded in 1996. (6) Accounted for as an operating lease as a result of the sale/leaseback transaction in November 1995. (7) Owned by a joint venture in which the company has a 75% interest. (8) Operated under a management contract with the rig's owner. The rig is currently engaged in scientific geological coring activities and is owned by a joint venture in which the company has a 50% interest. Dayrate indicated reflects 100% of contract rate. (9) Current contract provides for a bonus incentive opportunity not reflected in the stated current contract dayrate. (10) Dayrate reflects a base level to be paid over the estimated 450-day contract period. The rig will receive a dayrate higher than the stated base level when utilized in a water depth of greater than 2,000 feet. Transocean Inc. Fleet Page 5
